So i got my handy dandy 2018 Preseason Guide for NFHS baseball and i had a question regarding foul tip.
The guide states in a OP:
With a 1-1 count, the batter swings at a pitch, which is tipped and goes directly to the catcher's glove and then rebounds to the catchers chest protector. The catcher secures the ball with his bare hand and makes a legal catch. Ruling1: This is a foul tip, so long as the ball first went directly to the catchers glove.
My question is "this is a foul tip, so long as the ball first went directly to the catchers glove"
So what about a foul tip that goes directly to the catchers glove, rebounds off his helmet and goes straight up in the air... and the catcher looks up and catches it. I have had this happen multiple times.... Would this be a foul tip and subject to "Strike 3 batter is out" ?
Please help.
Thanks!
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
